<\/a>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCinque Terre is a land of lush vegetation, vibrant seaside villages, and panoramic landscapes. Or so any travel guide for the Italian Riviera would tell you. This region, named for the five towns that line the seaside, is also home to a thriving local produce market.\r\n\r\nThe game Cinque Terre by Rio Grande Games focuses on this aspect of the region\u2019s culture. Each player takes the roll of a farmer operating a fruit cart, traveling along the farming roads collecting produce, then back to the villages to sell. Each game involving a varied market and production to drive competition over supply and demand.\r\n\r\nOur game ran quickly, with very little room for competing for public orders. Our prices were high for most forms of produce, making quick runs for valuable produce more efficient. No clear victor showed until the end when secret produce order cards were flipped.\r\n\r\nCinque Terre is a wonderful game for all ages with great replay value for its simplicity. The varying market really drives strategy variation between games, the secret order cards create player variance, while the public order cards press the players into competition.\r\n\r\nWe would like to thank Rio Grande for this great donation, as well as their donation of Spin Monkeys, Renaissance Man, Arctic Scavengers, Cavemen, and Pi\u00f1ata.\r\n\r\nIf you would like to give Cinque Terre a try, or another of Rio Grande\u2019s games, they are available for check out here<\/a>, at the UNT Media Library.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Cinque Terre is a land of lush vegetation, vibrant seaside villages, and panoramic landscapes.
